Pierre Bachelet - Pierre Bachelet (1975)


Excellent debut (not counting soundtracks) solo record from Pierre Bachelet. Cinematic, exploratory, romantic, and very horny art rock/chanson -- as you might expect from a prolific composer of scores for French soft porn films.

Track listing:
1. L'Atlantique (Toi, moi et la musique)
2. À longeur de temps
3. Ils y croient tous
4. Avec Satan
5. Hello Darling
6. La connierie
7. L'amour démoniaque
8. V'la le printemps
9. Seulement voilà
10. Petite soeur

  1. What the... ??
    Pierre Bachelet is very famous here in France, but mainly for his old-fashioned variety songs. I did not even know that he made that kind of music!! wow! That show how crazy your blog is ! And your tastes in music! I never thought i would even check what Bachelet did apart from his (awful) well-known songs! And that is thanks to you !!!

  2. Another point - apart the fact he wrote the music for "Emmanuelle" movie that made him millionnaire… -, the sixth title song is "la connerie" (without the first "i" : it means dumbness, silliness ;-)

  3. Thanks, Bachelet was a great melodist, writing tunes one can whistle, an ability most of today's film composers seem to lack . John.
